Question

Transform the sentence with 'as soon as' to one with 'no sooner than':
As soon as Sara finished working on one project, she began working on her next one.

• A. No sooner did Sara finished working on one project than she began working on her next one.
• B. No sooner does Sara finish working on one project than she began working on her next one.
• C. No sooner had Sara finished working on one project than she began working on her next one.
• D. No sooner did Sara finish working on one project than she begins working on her next one.

Answer 1

The correct option is C No sooner had Sara finished working on one project than she began working on her next one.

'No sooner..than' is used to suggest that one action takes place immediately after another action. When 'no sooner..than' is used at the beginning of the sentences then auxiliary verb goes before the subject. No sooner always introduces the event that occurred first.

The given sentence can be transformed using no sooner..than by beginning the sentence with 'no sooner'' followed by 'than'.

Option C is the correct answer as the auxiliary verb 'had' is before the subject 'Sara'. Options A, B, and D are grammatically wrong.
